timer stats: speedups
Make timer-stats have almost zero overhead when enabled in the config but
not used. (this way distros can enable it more easily)
Also update the documentation about overhead of timer_stats - it was
written for the first version which had a global lock and a linear list
walk based lookup ;-)
